From an article written by the late
DR.. S. 1renIus Prime on his SEVENTEEN
birthday, published in the New York
Observer, we take the following: 'ln
looking back, as every thoughtful per-
son reaching ssuch period in his life
must look, / have abundant reason for
gratitude and praise. My life has been
full of care, labor and sorrow, but over
md above all, as sunshine on the troubled
sea, / have had blessings many and
great. The highest of all count this,
that have had the opportunity of being
useful. Far short, indeed, in doing
what could and should have done
have come, and my failure ! lament
before God this day. But it has been
the daily governing and abiding prin-
ciple and purpose of my life, in
strength aud weakness, in youth, man
hood and olo age, in the pulpit and tho
press. in private and in public, every
where and always-to be useful in seek
ing to mako the world better and hap
pier. Thus would glorify God and en-
Joy him. How little have accomplished
God knows full well, and take no
Sioul" III any lhlHS, except LnaC nave
sought divine aid, and with it have tried
to live for others and not for myself.
There is not now living, and never was,
a being whom have Intentionally
harmed or wrongcd, while all whom
have known / have tried to
serve, as God gave me the opportunity.
These things fill the minds of many as
to be desired, health, distinction and
enjoyment. have never sought any
one Of the three; yet it has pleased God
to give me enough of the first for my
reasonable wants in old age; more OF
the second than is convenient; and as
much Of the third as ordinarily at ends
life of unceasing activity in labor.
The time for rest does not seem to have
come, and perhaps will not till death or
disability supervcncs; but the love Of
wife and children and grandchildren,
all living in the joy of tie Lord, makes
old age cheerful and glad, so that a.
even-time it is light"

A Leper Colony.

Touching at Molokai, we were afforded
an excellent opportunity for inspecting
the leper colony established there. Many
of these unfortunates were found to be in
the last stages of the disease. The sight
of these poor creatures would serve to ex-
cite the curiosity of only the most morbid
nature. Their cheerfulness, even when
rendered incapable of locomotion by the
ravages of the disease, is somewhat re-
markable, while their number includes
many Europeans, the Chinese being by
far in excess of all other nations.
The disease is said to be rather constit-
uent in character than the result Of
cutaneous incubation, as might be err
roneously supposed. Science, however,
has not been enabled to do much toward
relieving the sufferings of these poorpeo-
people, although their wants appeared to
be generously provided for through the
liberality of the government and that Of
foreign residents. The disease is contag-
ious, while the hopeless misery of many
of its victims in Hawaii would justly ex.
cite the pity of any beholdef. One fea-
ture of the disease as explained by my in
formant is the fact that there are many
persons now living at Molokai who for
years prior to their arrival there as pa
tients had been living in various parts of
the kingdom in utter ignorance of the APP
palling fact that lcprosy was insidiously
attacking the system.
One instance in point was that of an
aged Catholic priest, who discovered his
deDlorable condition only after nm acci-

Two Epitaphs.

On a recent trip through Tasmania.
writes correspondent, our travelling
party happened TO visit the graveyard at
Launceston, and among the various cpl
taphs discovered the following on a slate
stone slab:
Beneath this rustic pile of stones
Lie the remains Of Mary Jones.
Her name was Lloyd; it was not Jones:
But Jones was put to rhyme with stones.
This was considered fairly good, but
on our return our host capped it. In the
early days Of the colony rich merchants
wife died. Anxious to provide her a
suitable monument, the bereayed hus-
band sent far and wide for a stone cutter.
and by rare good luck found one capable
of reading. The inscription was to be.
gin with the verse: "a yirtuous woman
is crown to her husband" The first
five words went on one line, leaving room
for two more letters. "Crown' could
not be divided, but there was another re-
source. To the stone-cutter crown was
"five bob" so he promptly inserted the
symbol Is. and the difficulty was sur
mounted. -HdrPer's Magazine.

Wanted Money for HIs Pass

81 think" said a railroad man, reflect
lively, to a Washington correspondent,
"the meanest man l ever met In the mat
ter of passes was member of Congress.
All one winter he had bored us for passes
upon one pretext and another. One day
he wrote us to send him pass for himself
from Pittsburg to Washington and an
other for his son from Pittsburg to Balti-
more. The lad, he explained, was going
there to school. 1t appears that he sub
sequently changed his mind, and kept the
youngster at Washington with him. He
wrote us this information, in fact, and
inclosed in the letter the boys pass and
asked us to send him in money the fare
from Washington to Baltimore. He ex-
planned that the pass entitled him to the
ride, but that he would take the money
instead 1t was the coolest proposition
had ever heard"

Little sins grow. They arc not like
spiders or wasps, which we can put our
foot on and crush if need be; but like
little lions, which seem as harmless as
kittens at first, but grow into fierce,
roaring wild beasts. There is a lad
about fifteen years old in States prison,
Pvt in for five years, for stealing. He
says DO remembers well the first time he
stole. 1t was ten cent piece, which
was lying on the mantle in lady's
house, where he was doing some work.
When no one was looking he slipped it
into his pocket, and oh, how frightened
he was afterwards for fear he would be
found out. But he was not, and so the
next time he had the chance he stole
Sgain, and kept on growing worse, until
at last, with some other boys, he broke
in house. People seldom do very
wicked things at first. They do little
wrong things; so little that they say,
"Oh, that's nothing; there's no harm in
that" But tho little things grow and
grow into big things, and then people
see harm in them. Dear children, there
are no little sins in Gods sight. All arc
truly large and very black. --[Standard.

speai:lns With the nr..,cr.

We feeble mortals have the privilege
of speaking to our Maker. We utter
words here to pour out our desires in
the closet, or when walking in the street
or engaged in our daily employment we
breathe an ejaculation. The word NAV
be scarcely louder than a whisper It
may be inaudible to our ncighbor, and
yet it cannot die away into silence. nor
can it be lost through blending with
other sounds; nothing can drown it or
prevent it reaching its destination. It
passes beyond sun and stars, it enters
the presence chamber of the Almighty.
Amid the ceascless strains of praise,
that whisper reaches the Divine ear,
touches the infinite heart, moveo the
Omnipotent arm. 1t brings forth troops
of angels or ministries'of mercy. 1t sets
in motion long trains of events, and
brings down showers of blessings on
those who utter it.--TW. Landels.
